It's our home and our building — it's time we ran it ourselves.
And it's not the only red flag. Real change is only possible if we act together — and that's where you come in. To take back control we'll need a united front, not a handful of voices, and you don't have to own your flat to be part of it.

The managing agent is taking commission on our insurance — on top of the management fee we already pay them.
Our building's insurance tripled in a single year — with no explanation given.
The accounts have been filed years late — and an overcharge the agent admitted to has never been returned.
Conservatively. That's money leaving the building every year that residents — under our own management — could recover, redirect, or simply stop paying.
You don't have to own your flat to benefit, or to take part. Better-run building, fairer costs, and a real say — whoever you are.
Lower cost and full control — that's the whole point.
The law lets leaseholders take over management once enough of us agree. We need around 22 flats. That's the line we're working toward now.
A simple not-for-profit company, owned by us, that takes over running the building. No need to buy the freehold, no need to prove wrongdoing.
With a solicitor's help, formal notice goes to the freeholder. The process typically takes four to six months. Then management is ours.
Transparent accounts, competitive contracts, repairs that get done, and a community space where everyone can see what's happening.
It takes five minutes. Tell us your flat, what you've dealt with, and that you're in. The more of us, the stronger we are.
